摘要:

在结构到结构转换任务的背景下,学习离散符号操作序列因其不可微性而面临重大挑战。为促进这些符号序列的学习,我们引入了一种可微树解释器,它将高层符号树操作编译为张量上的亚符号矩阵操作。我们提出了一种新颖的可微树机(Differentiable Tree Machine,DTM)架构,该架构将我们的解释器与外部存储器以及一个智能体相集成,该智能体学习按顺序选择树操作,以端到端方式执行目标转换。关于合成语义解析和语言生成任务上的分布外组合泛化,DTM达到了100%,而Transformer、Tree Transformer、LSTM和Tree2Tree LSTM等现有基线的成绩低于30%。除完美性能外,DTM还保持了高度的可解释性。

英文摘要:

In the context of structure-to-structure transformation tasks, learning sequences of discrete symbolic operations poses significant challenges due to their non-differentiability. To facilitate the learning of these symbolic sequences, we introduce a differentiable tree interpreter that compiles high-level symbolic tree operations into subsymbolic matrix operations on tensors. We present a novel Differentiable Tree Machine (DTM) architecture that integrates our interpreter with an external memory and an agent that learns to sequentially select tree operations to execute the target transformation in an end-to-end manner. With respect to out-of-distribution compositional generalization on synthetic semantic parsing and language generation tasks, DTM achieves 100% while existing baselines such as Transformer, Tree Transformer, LSTM, and Tree2Tree LSTM achieve less than 30%. DTM remains highly interpretable in addition to its perfect performance.
